Grand Teton National Park

Snake River Overlook

We left Grand Teton National Park this morning after spending 9 days at Gros Ventre Campground.  

The weather could not have been better for August. Lows were in the 40's and highs were low to mid 80's with humidity at around 20%. We enjoyed a driving tour one morning driving north on Teton Park Road towards Yellowstone National Park driving as far as Jackson Lake Overlook. We returned via Highway 191. Getting an early start is a good idea this time of year. The park and roads are generally crowded during the middle of the day. 

If you enjoy a good bike ride, the North Pathway runs from Jackson Hole north to South Jenny Lake. Our location at Gros Ventre was only 4.5 miles away from the trail. I made several trips into Jackson on the trail and several trips north to Jenny Lake. The North Pathway can't be beat for spectacular scenery. If you're lucky, you'll also be able to see Pronghorn grazing. There are also moose in the vicinity and bears too.
